| yalie: <samsal27> yes. I guess Humpy's loss to catherine Pereira doomed here and she couldnt make the top 4 to play for the individual gold. Well, as far as India is concerned, it is all good since Harika brought home the gold anyway. Now comes the Classical section and then the Blitz section. So far, India has captured all three Golds available and must be at least co-favorites alongwith China for the other 6 golds. |

| samsal27: <yalie> Harika seems to be India's only hope for a medal in the individual classical events. India got the silver in the classical team event behind China. |

| samsal27: Harika faltered at the end missing a certain win against Soumya in the last round to finally lose the game and her place in the Indian team for the upcoming Olympiad in Dresden. Let us hope she can fare better in the World Youth Chess Championships which get underway shortly in Turkey ... |

Next up, she will play in the Aeroflot Open..., she had a wonderful tournament last year..., All the best to Harika to gain her final GM Norm... |

Around the same time last year, Harika has withdrawn from the Kolkatta GM tournament due to some illness. Bad time of the year for her again.... |

World Champion - India

| bharatiy: Harika got invitation to Corus C, hope her performance is good. |
|
Jan-12-09
 |
| brankat: Happy Birthday, and good luck in Corus! |
|
| Jan-21-09 |
| bharatiy: after Four rounds in Corus C, Harika is doing OK, she is just playing at par with her rating, I would have liked if she was playing much better. Such opportunities are rare and you should take maximum advantage of it. Anyway all the best to her!! |
|
| Jan-22-09 |
| bharatiy: Harika drew fifth game, actually she outplayed her opponent but could not convert advantage. Anyway she is slightly above her rating so hope she can play much better and get some ration points and invites. |
|
| Jan-24-09 |
| bharatiy: Harika is doing good, just above her rating but would love if she plays little better. |
|
| Jan-28-09 |
| yalie: She beat Howell today to be +1. With another win, she may be close to a GM norm. |
|
| Jan-29-09 |
| bharatiy: what should be her final score to get a GM norm? |
|
| Jan-29-09 |
| bharatiy: I dont understand rules clearly, but from whatever I could gather most important is Harika should achieve 2600 performance. Till now its been 2560 for her. If she achieves that it will be a norm for sure. Hope she manages that. Correct me if I am wrong. Also she must go to 2500 rating itself to be considered for title. |
